Hell, at first I thought this COULD have been Saddam Hussein, but I guess the Butcher isn't incarcerated in Seattle:
A former diplomat for a Communist country and his wife, who claim that the Central Intelligence Agency broke a promise to support them for life in return for spying for the United States, will have to suffer in secret, the Supreme Court said in effect today.
Reaching back to a case from the Civil War era, the justices unanimously ruled that the spy, identified only as John Doe, and his wife cannot sue the C.I.A. in federal court because such a suit would be wholly incompatible with the often harsh realities of the cloak-and-dagger world.
"If you're ever killed or captured, the pResident will disavow any knowlege..."
